6605 – “roughing it”

Posting from the laptop… lost the power supply on the desktop system yesterday, about midday. Thank goodness for lappie…especially considering I’m on call. It’s been a little while since I’ve used ol’ lappie, and it’s a minor thing to get back to the smaller keyboard.

No Supers, no There, no major surfing until I get that one back to business.

There is something to be said for sitting Indian-style, typing at the end of the bed, rather than at the desk…a more comfortable, natural feeling. The big trick is to make a sitting-place more appealing than the keyboard here, considering this is also the position I sit in when I’m going to give him some playtime. We’ve found a solution…he’s curled against my back swatting at the ponytail (I’m goading him a little, by shaking my head.)

After I get my day’s duties taken care of, I’m going to swing by the computer store on federal to gather some fresh innards for my poor broken brain. I rand windows update, and for about a half hour feared that I’d caused my backup computer to crash out, too.

Well, I see by the clock in the corner that it’s time for me to fly once more. Until later, dear journal. Have a good one!
